Interesting article on OTEC and carbon sequestration
Over on Renewable Energy World is an interesting Q&A on Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion ("OTEC") written by Christopher Barry. He's focusing on OTEC and how it can relate to deep-water carbon sequestration, which was one of the first applications of OTEC that I became aware of a few years back in law school in discussions with Craig Allen, a maritime and marine law expert at the University of Washington.
Interesting from a conceptual standpoint, and it is something I believe has serious merit, using a carbon-free energy source to sequester CO2 in the deep ocean (where residence times are on the order of 2000 years or so).
For more, see Christopher Barry's write-up at Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion and CO2 Sequestration.
